Hi, It would be useful to attach anything to a JIRA call, as that is an easier worklog than email.
The biggest issue that I can see with this is that [collections] as a project is currently at the 'full' point, and needs refactoring into smaller units. This should probably be done as part of moving collections to JDK1.5. Unfortunately, [collections] has little development time available, so just porting to generics is a big enough concept, even before considering a new collection like Trie. There may be another committer willing to volunteer time to this of course...

The project is fully voluntary, so I understand that responses may take a long time. I'd like to make sure that I sent the offer to the correct place, though. Is there some other venue I should be looking at for contributing code? Should I be doing this through JIRA? To recap last week's email, Roger Kapsi & I have developed a Patricia tree that fits the Map & SortedMap interfaces (and can easily fit the upcoming Java 1.6 NavigableMap), and we'd like to offer it for inclusion in commons-collection. It's currently written for Java 1.5's generics and licensed under the GPL, but we can easily remove the generics if required and should likely be able to change the license if necessary. Thanks very much, Sam --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
